Rusalka is my horror boy, he's a fleshgait that wears the skin of one of my other chars brothers. He hides under the guise of a doctor, working to 'help and heal people.' Instead he kills patients eating their insides and claiming their skins & organs for his own. He can also mimic voices to lure.

you could just use the fleshgait instead of being culturally insensitive, but ok, white demon

A fleshgait is more intrusive. You know Bob, you have memories of drinking schnapps and playing tekken with him in college. Last year you visited him in the hospital and- oh oops, Bob doesn't exist

Of the classic cryptids, I'm a big fan of the wampus cat. But the Fouke Monster is a close second.
Of the new cryptids, I think the fleshgait/goatman/rake (they're all the same thing, right?) is the creepiest.

What would be more terrifying: running into a crawler on a hiking trail, or being in a broken down car that has been noticed by a fleshgait

The term "fleshgait" was coined ostensibly for that reason, but I'll let you be the judge of whether that's any better.

“fleshgait” just sounds like the temu version of the skinwalker

Personally, I'd suggest swapping out the label of Wendigo for a monster of European folklore origin (Barghest, Hellhound, Leshy) or even an original modern monster (Fleshgait or Skulldog) in the interest of cultural sensitivity.

It's to keep you safe in the event of being trapped in a cabin in the woods and harangued by a doppelgänger or a fleshgait.

Oops he's a fleshgait now. Or would it be a furgait?

EXACTLYYYYY.
I hit my character limit though.
Same with sk*nwalkers, but at least that has a similar creature (fleshgait) that aren't tied to a very specific native culture and their plights at the hand of white colonists.

I like to imagine that George Costanza is in the very center of the spectrum between goatman and fleshgait.
He could slide into your friend group and all of you will have a single extremely vague memory of him like "oh yeah he lived on my couch last year"

How this thing looked a week ago vs how it looks rn after a much needed redesign. This is my lancer OC FleshGait. It’s gonna have a scythe and two long arms coming out of the back. I love the bio mechanical mecha a lot so I want something that kinda does that

to add, i often think of skinstealer/fleshgait/skinwalker wooyoung. he's a lil freak and think he'd be perfect as that kind of creature. weird, buggy eyes that are also beady. limbs just a little too disproportionate, just enough to raise alarms. stares way too fucking much. drools + twitchy lips

Honestly, I think the Fleshgait is just a ghoul. But Crawlers are only really dangerous in groups, so the Fleshgait.

Same thing with sk*nw*lkers, those are a creature SUPER SPECFIC to Navajo mythology and the Navajo hate talking about them for a reason.
Use the term Fleshgait, it's the coined term for similar creatures that aren't connected to Navajo folklore.

signs you can use to determine if an animal is an unshifted Fleshgait:
1.) these creatures often appear confused, move erratically, and show little to no fear.
2.) they may have uncharacteristic displays of intelligence, such as understanding spoken commands.
3.) They appear when you're alone.
